Then you'll be asking the President to reauthorize the wind farm contracts off Long Island, right? Right??

Having a train that takes you directly to the airport is genuinely one of the top 10 things a city can offer. No expensive taxis, no sitting in traffic, no begging someone to drop you off. Just get on the train and arrive at the airport. Every major city should have this.

We should double property taxes for people over 65 to encourage downsizing and free up inventory for young families
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?”
Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century.

Three Facts:
•Tommy wasn't a voter. He was a Christian Nationalist plant by Josh Hawley.
•Tommy isn't worried religious law superseding our Constitution. He admitted he's trying to enact Christian Shariah above the Constitution.
•Zero corporate media outlets will report on how the Muslim Senate Candidate is running to uphold the Constitution, and the Christian sitting Senator is governing to enforce Christian Shariah.
They're not afraid of losing our Constitution. They're afraid of competition.

The “Tommy” show in the viral video from Abdul El-Sayed is a former staffer for Sen. Josh Hawley and the son of a GOP strategist.

Goodness gracious. Our wedding was in 2010. In Rhinebeck, New York. No taxpayer funds courtesy of President Obama or anyone. I’m sure 2014 in every season was beautiful in the Rose Garden!
Chelsea Clinton was allowed to use the White House's Rose Garden for her wedding in 2014, courtesy of former President Barack Obama.
The event ended up costing the taxpayer $1.7 million, which the Clintons were supposed to track and pay.
According to last year's DOGE report, they never did, and now a federal judge has made it obligatory.
Clinton will pay the original amount plus 12 years of compounded interest at market rates.
And the left said DOGE didn't find any fraud.
What's your response to this......??👀
MAKE THIS GO VIRAL ON X. LET’S GO 👏
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Chelsea Clinton's wedding took place in 2010 at Astor Courts in New York not the White House Rose Garden in 2014. No federal judge has ordered her to repay 1.7 million in taxpayer funds for it with interest and DOGE has stated it has no involvement in such claims. snopes.com/fact-check/che… x.com/DOGE/status/19…

What is it about the GOP that they have to infantilize men to excuse their dick-stepping? Tommy Teepell is in his mid-20s and has had a senior job working for @HawleyMO.
Are you saying Hawley hires children?
Abdul continues to hide who he is as he beats up a young kid.
His faith isn’t the issue. His ideas are.
He wrote an oped urging Americans to support the Muslim Brotherhood if they took over Egypt. After they took over, he publicly called for the MB to purge the police and the media of those who oppose the MB. That’s right - purge.
He calls Israel “bloodthirsty”. Who talks like that?
When a Hezbollah inspired terrorist in tried to blow up a synagogue in Michigan, Abdul justified it by explaining, “hurt people hurt people.” The terrorist’s brother was a Hezbollah commander in Lebanon who had been killed by Israel.
Abdul’s mother was a MB member, his sister supported the 10/7 Hamas massacre of Jews and the Obama Administration put Abdul’s sister in law on the terrorist watch list.
Alone among American candidates, the Muslim Brotherhood issued a statement celebrating Abdul’s win in the D primary.
I don’t know what Abdul is. But I know he’s a risk America can’t afford.

He’s a former staffer for Josh Hawley. We call that a “plant” where I’m from

Say @HawleyMO?
Do YOU, like your recent staffer Tommy Teepell, disavow the Constitution's Freedom of Religion?
If so, will you resign from the Senate for lying in your oath of office?

Abdul El-Sayed gives a BRILLIANT response to a guy asking him is he disavows the Muslim Brotherhood (he disavows them).
Why doesn't every Christian candidate get asked if they disavow the Proud Boys, or the KKK, or other Christian Nationalist terrorists?

The owner of X posted a bunch of Kremlin propaganda and then turned off Starshield in Ukraine to help Putin murder thousands of Ukrainian civilians. Here's why Bluesky has an intellectual diversity problem.

The Republican Speaker of the Texas House weighs in.
"There’s not a world in which I can vote for a Ken Paxton," says Dade Phelan. "Knowing who he is and knowing his integrity, no. I just can’t do it. No whatsoever." texasmonthly.com/news-politi…

Because of course the raid on Ilhan Omar's home was not in compliance with the warrant. Section 212(k) of the INA creates a waiver so even if her dad did something wrong or completed a form inaccurately that she didn't know about as a kid, she will not lose her US citizenship.

I can’t tell you if you do this out of social obligation or brand building, but in case no one has said it to you yet: you don’t have to do this. It is, in fact, okay to not praise a white nationalist who cruelly smeared your father after he died. You can choose to not do this.
